One of my old bosses always said that if you have more than a 3 arrows on a slide, you don’t know what is going on. The context was very much classical medical research, but I think there is something to be said for his scepticism. There is a quote from Paul Valery, I think to the effect of: that which is simple, is wrong; that which is complicated is useless. I looked at this whiteboard content and wondered how much it reminded me of med ed gone wrong. More HR speak, than education. The whiteboard was seen in a gym, and I think referred to dance.
